[QUOTE="BrayD, post: 505584, member: 24554"] Good input. I'll experiment with welding the hull on the damaged area. I have experience welding transoms (converting short shaft to long shaft) on more modern Jon's, but I'll admit I never measured the thickness. That's to say I have [I]some [/I]experience, but not enough to be overly confident yet. I really like the idea of re-using the old transom. It would have to be pinched quite a bit to get it in there though. I'll have to take some more measurements and see if the floor ribs would allow it as I don't see them moving too much. [/QUOTE]
